A pretty little tea cozy in the making

I adore tea cozies and especially if they are crocheted or knitted, so I just couldn't resist attempting this very pretty and lovely little tea cozy by Niki Trench. I'm quite fond of this book as there are oodles of lovely ideas in here with some lovely things already made and many more I would love to make. Money well spent. I have noticed that she now has a new book out called 'Crochet Living'. Have any of you bought or seen this book in person??

So the teacozy is almost finished, I just need to do a couple more flowers and the little cozy will be ready to cosy.

It is so satisfying to tick a job off a list and today's was a piece of oilcloth on a chair, hooray!

These beautiful flowers were given to me today by a very dear friend picked from her Mothers garden and I just need to know what they are as they are lush, lush lush and I NEED to plant some. Do you have any idea what they could be. To me they look like Camellia's, but it is far too early and cold for Camellia's to be in full bloom where we are, right??

Now, turning over for the last of the Great British Sewing Bee.... and it can only be splendiferous!!

Something about me

Welcome to Cosmos and Cotton, I am so pleased you have stopped by and I hope you enjoy your time here. For this blog I am using Hannapat, the name my Mother called me when I was growing up and it holds a very special place in my heart. I am so blessed that we have a special bond. She has inspired me throughout my life and continue to do so even whilst being on the other side of the world.
I am happily married to a husband I adore and we have two wonderful children whom bring so much joy to our lives. I love spending time with them and being part of the journey in life. I love filling my days with moments of making or creating. I enjoy thrifting and finding little gems and there is nothing more rewarding than finding some old tat and turning it into something beautiful. A year and a half ago I started crocheting and it's fair to say that I am completely hooked!! I just wish there was more time to put yarn around my hook.
This blog is a diary of my life and I hope to share some fun and wonderful moments with you all. I have been so inspired by creative spirits and their blogs over the years and I hope I can return the favour. Hannapat
